Napoli will host Frosinone at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Tuesday in the last 16 of the 2023-24 Coppa Italia campaign.
The home side have endured a largely turbulent campaign and will hope they can find better luck in the domestic cup this week. They returned to winning ways in Serie A on Saturday with a narrow but well-deserved 2-1 victory over Cagliari, with Victor Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia getting on the scoresheet in the second half.
Napoli are six-time winners of the domestic competition, last lifting the title in the 2019-20 campaign. They were, however, knocked out at this stage of the competition by Cremonese last season and will hope they can advance this time around.
Frosinone kicked off their Coppa Italia campaign with a 1-0 win over Pisa profiting from an early own goal as they held on for the win. They then picked up a 2-1 extra-time victory over Torino in the next round, with Bayern Munich loanee Arijon Ibrahimovic scoring the opener just five minutes after kickoff and Real Madrid loanee Reiner scoring the winner in extra time.
The visitors are set to make their first appearance in the last 16 of the Coppa Italia in over a decade this week and will be looking to give a good account of themselves against one of the tournament favorites.
